Rate and Mechanics of Progressive Hillslope Failure in the Redwood Creek Basin,Northwestern California. Geomorphic Processes and Aquatic Habitat in the Redwood Creek Basin, Northwestern California

摘要

Both creep and earthflow processes dominate hillslope erosion over large parts ofthe Redwood Creek basin. The type of process and the displacement rates are largely dependent on underlying bedrock type and precipitation. The Redwood Creek basin is approximately 60 km north of Eureka in the Northern California Coast Ranges.
